Official Tupac Biopic "All Eyez On Me" Thread

Of course but the point is she was heavily involved. She didnt support this flick, so why make it??

She also created Loyal to the Game and Pac's Life.

I don't think a recovering crack addict with no experience in the music industry should be given recordings potentially worth millions, but that happened. Disappointment from official releases is just part of being a 2Pac fan. It Is What It Is.

loyal to the game is such a weird album

em went out of his way just to try to "modernize" pac but you don't really need to do that

I really wish pac's estate handled posthumous releases like they handled RUSD and Still I Rise (even tho Better Dayz is my favorite of the posthumous albums): Release the songs with their original production, and only remix it if you can't get the main sample cleared.

edit: i can't read lmao. point still stands, eminem needs to stay the hell away

Amaru only supplied Eminem with acapellas, so you can blame them just as much as Eminem for how the album turned out.

When you can't get a certain sample cleared, there are different approaches you can take instead of remixing (the way Amaru have in the past) and potentially destroying the song. E.g:

This is also true. Eminem remixed the album for free iirc but this was around the time he was fukking with some bad drugs so the final product was kind of a reflection of how his life has been going.

There are def some some songs that they did a good job with updating (Ballad of a Dead Soulja comes to mind). It just confuses the hell out of me when they remix songs with his Makaveli sessions, especially since 90% of the songs have no sample to begin with

The actor kinda resembles 2Pac but does he have the attitude and charisma, I don't know.

Sure, Amaru have done some good mixes in the past; "Do For Love", "Hellrazor", "Changes", "Lie To Kick It", "Until The End Of Time", "Breathin'", etc. But they can never hold the same effect as the originals for me. I don't want to hear somebody else’s interpretation of it, I want to hear what 2Pac left behind the way he left it. Remixes should only be done as a bonus.

If Death Row had full control over his unreleased material (I think) we would have got the songs as close to original as possible, example:

"Friends" - Too Gangsta for Radio
"Thug Nature" - Too Gangsta for Radio
"Who Do You Believe In?" - Chronic 2000
"Late Night" - Chronic 2000

"Friends" has a sample
"nikkaz Nature" has a sample
"When Thugz Cry" has a sample
"Let Em Have It" has a sample

I can respect that. Like I said earlier, it just feels like Amaru was worried that pac's music would sound dated for the current demographic. But by updating those tracks they ended up alienating alot of big pac fans as well (and it's even funnier imo because most of those original tracks have aged better than alot of the tracks they remixed lmao)

RUSD has alot of really great remixes, but this some are like Enemies With Me and I'm Losing It

Still I Rise had some underrated cuts too. The title track itself is up there with the original. I enjoyed the beat for You Can Be Touched, but I wish that pac's original verse was there as well (from what I've read pac wrote the verse for Napoleon so it makes sense that Napoleon is on there instead of pac... but pac's delivery was was better lol)

Deathrow did a good job keeping those songs as close to the original as possible. Friends sounded okay considering that the Whodini sample was removed. Thug Nature is pretty great. I don't think Who Do You Believe In was any different from the version on Better Dayz. Was Late Night any different? I know the original had Quik and another rapper on it and the Better Dayz version had Fatal and Kadafi but I don't remember the TGFR version
